Now what? Clivia from seedlings

9 years ago

I bought 20 seeds from ebay this summer. Like a bad gardener I planted the seed without reading much about how to do it so after one day I was digging all of them out amd placed them on the surface of the ground. I got 15 nice small plants. Somehow I didn't found one seed so it got out later and it looks healty but I will probably have to wait longer for it to look like the other ones.

So, what do I do now? How long I have to wait until I will have to plant them in individual pots? I identified the light color ones by looking at the first pseudoleaf and I marked them wih a toothpick so I will know they will have yellow or orange flowers. Were is the best to place this big pot? I have it at the base of a south facing window so no direct sun on them.

I love these flowers. I know I will have to wait a lot until I will see some blooms but that is OK. It's part of the happiness to have flowers.

Next picture is of the seed that I didn't find in the soil so it was covered with almost an inch of soil:


I believe a have a variegated one, not sure if it will keep the light striped leaves to long, I read that they tend to loose these white stripes in time:
